TWO VIEWS OF RICHARD K. FOX.

Unsuccessful Negotiations for Paint
ing and a Delicate Display of Taste
in Tobacco.
New YORK, Dec 10.-Richard K. Fox,
the sporting man and publisher of various
periodicals that are not rated very highly
by conservative people, cuts considerable
figure in this city on account of his great
wealth and his extravagant style of living.
He is, as might reasonably be expected, a
very ignorant man, and occasionally he ex-
poses himself in a ridiculous way. Although
he employs a score of skillful artists in the
publication of his papers and books, he
knows nothing whatever about art in itself
or about the work required OF an artist.
He met one of his artist ucquaintances the
other day, and in the course of conversaT
ton suddenly said:
by the way, Mr.. B., what would you
take to paint me n first-class picture, about
foot and half square, and have in it
rocky coast, or the sea, or something like
that; fine, you know. What would it costF
well, Mr.. Fox" replied the artist, Il
should think | could give you pretty good
picture of some such scene for $75.n
Now, Fox did not know enough about
painting, even in its commercial sense, to
realize that this was a fairly low price for a
picture of the size and quality indicated.
The figure struck him as rather steep, and
he said
"Well, l don't know. Now, you know, I
don't know much about painting, and how
would | know, if paid you S75 Tor the pic
ture, that there was as much paint on 1t as
would come to that! don't know anything
about the price of paint"
The artist, it is needless to say, could
make no satisfactory answer to this OBJ
lection, and the bargain was not con
cluded.
Another story about Fox was told to me
by gentleman who had occasion TO call
upon him at his office. He was received
with ELUSIVE cordiality, and after "A few
asked him if he would not have a cigar; and,
on receiving an affirmative answer, went to
his safe and drew from its inmost recesses
an ordinary cigar box with a Custom
House stamp on il. 1t was about three
quarters full of cigars, and as he passed
the box to his visitor, he turned it in such
way that a scrap of commercial note paper
which had been laid on the top of the cigars
was plainly visible to the guest. Upon it
had been written, 1875 cents, straight"
With rare delicacy Mr.. Fox made no allu-
sion to the price he had paid for the cigars,
but when he was certain that his guest bad
seen the legend upon the paper, he asked:
"That's pretty good article, isn't itp
The guest per force had to respond that it
was something superfine. In private con-
versation afterward he admitted, however,
that he was unable to tell the '35 cents,
straight" cigar from the ordinary three
for-a-quarter that he smokes every day.

ON RAIL AND CROSSTIE.
Local and General Gossip in Railway
Circles

The Atlantic Coast Line has adopted the
Westinghouse system of automatic signals
in place of the bell system now in use for
starting and stopping trains. The new
system is said by railroad men to be great
Improvement upon the old. The cars are
now being equipped with it and it will
soon be used exclusively on all passenger
trains run over this line. Instead of the
clumsy gong and bell rope, by means of
which the conductor now gives his orders to
the engineer, the Westinghouse system con-
sists of a small whistle which is placed in the
cab of the engine and is operated by means
of air valves attached to each car in the
train. TIE valves are opened by pulling
cord which extends through the entire train,
so that the conductor has no trouble in sig
mailing the engineer from any car in the
train. The valves are supplied by the same
power that works the air-brakes, and are
connected by means of rubber joints under
the platforms, just as in the case of air
brakes. The new system is said to be the
more reliable in every way, as there is less
danger of breakage than with the bell rope,
and the conductor is able to give his signals
more quickly, more easily and more dis
timothy

The Title Guarantee Company

The subscription list to the stock of the
Title Guarantee and Loan Company OF
Savannah is rapidly filling up. When the
number of shares subscribed for reaches
$50 the corporation will be organized and
will proceed at once to do business. From
present indications the organization will be
completed at an early date.
The advantages claimed for this corpora
ton are that the stock will be very valua-
BILE, because in addition to the interest ac-
count, its revenues will be swollen by the
legitimate charges made for guaranteeing
titles and the other business in which il
win be engaged, and the fact that there will
be no dead capital. The names of the cor
porators commend it to public confidence
and if the stockholders exercise care in the
selection of directors and officers, it will
hardly fail to prove successful.

IN MEMORIAM.

Mrs j. J. NORRIS died on the 4th day of De

Our home is sad and lonely
Since mothers dead and gone;
We know she has left us only,
To find in Heaven a home.
But, oh how sad it was to part,
From our loved mother dear;
II almost broke her children's hearts,
And caused them many tear.
But then we know she dwells above,
And will guide us on our way,
Then she will greet us all with love,
On the great Judgment Day.

ego that the superintendent is besiegee
all the time with applications for work.
and that more men are employed now
than are really needed"
But Hugh thought il would do n,
harm to try, for he could only fail, and
without speaking of his intentions tc
any one, he went to the iron works thu
day before that appointed for his de
parture from home. He had never
seen Mr.. Deverest, and thought bimscl
fortunate when, ON walking into the
office at the works, he found at the
desk the gentleman who had given him
the ride three years before. The recog-
nition was mutual, and after an ex.
change of greetings Hugh told his
errand.
IF you hold position here, perhaps
you will be willing to introduce me to
Mr. Deverest," he said, "and tell me il
there is any chance for me-"
"Every chance" was the prompt re-
ply. "You shall have position to-
morrow. There is always room here
for young man with good principles. "
Ill don't understand" stam-
mered Hugh. "Can you-have you the
power"
perhaps you Mill understand. when
/ tell you am Mr.. Deverest," said the
old gentleman, smiling. $50 come to-
morrow, Hugh, and go to work. l am
glad to take into my employ one who
will make it point to keep his prom
ises."
So that was the result Of Hugh's long
walk to save the life of the little canary;
and it may well be supposed that, as hs
rose steadily in the iron works to one
position after another of honor and
trust, he often feltvery thankful that he
had given up the pleasures of that BIRTH
day picnic tofollow. however reluctant-
| ly, the dictates of his conscience. -

Americas Timber Supply.

Notwithstanding the great draw upon
the wood reserves of the country there
is no danger of exhaustion Mt present.
New England is by no means denuded
of its timber The great Northwestern
pineries are comparatively inexhaust-
ed. There is also vigorous second
growth of white pine in New England,
where the forests are already yielding
between 2O0,O00,000 and 100000, 000
feet of timber annually. Southern
pine. although stripped from the banks
of streams flowing into the Atlantic, is
practically untouched in the Gulf
States, especially those bordering on
the Mississippi. The hardwood forests
of the Mississippi basin are still prolific.
In Michigan, particularly the Northern
peninsula, hardwood is plentiful,
maple especially. In the Pacific coast
region the great forests of fir are prac-
tically intact. The forest capacity of
the country Is vast. Strange to say,
the deoimating element of most po-
tence Is fire, and not the axes of nier-
cenary timber spectators. = BOSTON
